Academy’s Genius Tamer Episode 232
‘I think you’re going to be in danger.’
Solia clearly said so.
not overly concerned
Solia’s words that she should be wary of the present peace were quite credible.
So I came here.
It was the throne room of the emperor.
After the death of Emperor Linia, Marcel, who was tired every day, was sitting there, where he stopped by for a meal.
He keeps his back straight, but his head is hanging as if he’s about to fall.
Marcel raised her hand like a zombie, with a face that clearly looked like she hadn’t even slept.
“It seems to be happening more often these days.”
“It’s full of things you need to see often.”
“Hey, your complexion looks good.”
“Maybe it’s because I’m still alive. Don’t worry. Because if it’s the same, there will be no color and no baldness.”
What I’ve seen often these days is that you call me over and over again!
I’ve been through overwork in my past life, so I’m very sensitive to this.
“Have a bite to eat, Your Majesty the Emperor.”
“… I get it.”
Marcel shut her mouth quietly, feeling my bloody eyes.
Let the resistance end here.
Most of the audiences I’ve been to Marcel have been out of necessity, but I’m here today because I have something to ask of you.
“You seem to be very dissatisfied with me, what happened?”
“We need reinforcements.”
“Well?”
Marcel closed her eyes and tilted her head.
He seemed to think it was an unexpected request.
“Why?”
“Castica is a strategically important region.”
“But, paradoxically, it’s also the safest place.”
The Castilian Territory itself is already well-defended.
If you consider the hidden card, Tae-Soo Han, it will not be pushed to any territory.
To be honest, it is true that the Imperial Palace has a level of force that should be guarded against.
Marcel rubbed her chin and muttered.
“Are you thinking of eating the Imperial Palace?”
“… .”
“… It’s a joke.”
I stared at him coldly, and Marcel lowered his tail.
“I will consider it.”
“If you attack while you are considering it, you will be late.”
“Let’s send reinforcements as soon as possible.”
“thank you.”
“Can’t we say that with a slightly grateful face?”
Did you just have a very sincere expression?
It’s the same thing here that you’re tired and your reactions don’t come out properly.
I frowned and lowered my head slowly.
‘Cause I’ve seen it somewhere.
He politely put his hands together and showed his sincerity.
“Sung is ruined… .”
“go away.”
“Is that so?”
Marcel waved his hand in disgust as he was repulsed by the unsuitable loyalty.
Ugh. If you do, you will, if you do not, you will.
The moment when you grumbled inside and kicked your tongue.
The smartphone in my pocket rang.
“What’s going on?”
“Oh, sorry.”
Marcel raised an eyebrow and asked.
It was Youn Ha-eul who was stamped as the sender.
I don’t think I would have contacted you at this time for no reason.
I looked into Marcel’s eyes, begging for forgiveness, and carefully picked up the smartphone.
– Shiha Han, come quickly.
A single word came through the handset.
Hearing Youn Ha-eul’s voice, his expression hardened immediately.
just as expected.
With the trembling voice, he could intuit what had happened.
However, what happened next was something I didn’t expect at all.
– Adela… I got it all… .
* * *
– I don’t know how I got it, but I brought a map.
– It’s a very detailed map, too.
-I can’t hide it… I told you all the truth. sorry.
Hearing that, he ran right away.
I don’t know where I got it, but if I had a map in my hand, I was going to tear it apart.
However.
“Huh… Ugh.”
When she arrived, gasping for breath, Adela sat calmly.
With a smile on his lips, he looks at me with a map open with both hands.
I felt it when I saw those eyes that seemed to be in deep thought.
At the latest, it’s already too late.
“Han Shiha, are you here?”
Adela put down the map and stood up.
I bit my lower lip and asked calmly.
“Where am I from?”
“It fell from the sky.”
“I don’t feel like joking.”
“… I was only telling the truth.”
Adela tilted her head and smiled.
I didn’t even think of making you laugh.
He’s already known everything.
I didn’t mean to go round and round for nothing.
I spoke with a cold face.
“no way. Aren’t you going to go?”
If I had interpreted the entire map, if I had listened to Youn Ha-eul’s explanation.
Adela would know.
Adela was the only one who could enter there with only a map that was so uncertain in the first place, and that it was reckless enough to risk her life.
You know I’d be against that idea.
Nevertheless, Adela answered cruelly.
“You can’t keep fighting meaningless for the rest of your life.”
I kept my mouth shut and looked at Adela calmly.
Adela tilted her head slightly and added.
“Someday I have to do it.”
“It’s not your job.”
“It’s the best thing I can do. You can take the cube, or you can kill Abaddon. I think we can end this war. It’s even weirder not to even try.”
It is logically correct.
I am well aware of how irresponsible it is to say that I am slandering Adela now.
However.
I wanted to catch it even with such a struggle.
“You could die.”
There have been many fights that could have been killed.
There were countless times when I almost died.
nevertheless.
I have never chosen a fight that had to die.
“It’s definitely not dead.”
“No, you must die.”
Adela’s expression hardened slightly.
You’re right about being forced.
The words you were trying to persuade me didn’t make any sense.
“Han Si-ha, if you were in the same situation as me, you wouldn’t have been much different.”
“Well. Because I don’t like to bet on my life.”
Adela’s unfamiliar eyes turned to this direction.
“… really?”
Adela raised her eyebrows and tilted her head.
she mumbled mutteringly.
“I know you are the one who risked your life for such things countless times.”
When Adela was kidnapped by Aaron at 3 West Rail Street.
When Solia was attacked by warlocks.
And, even now.
“If you could do it, you would.”
Adela smiled sadly and looked at me.
I hate to admit it
you know me too well
“So, give me a chance. One hour.”
I couldn’t answer any of Adela’s words.
* * *
Adela hates warlocks insanely.
It is like that in the setting of ‘Sulka Demi’, and considering the environment in which she was raised, there is no choice but to do so.
Even in the original story, I didn’t even think that I would be able to stop the kid whose eyes were turned around just by looking at Abaddon.
So, I had only one option.
Deferring judgment until the map is more accurate.
“Han Shiha… ?”
smart.
Outside the barracks, I heard Adela knocking on the door.
not easy to get in.
It was natural.
After the conversation ended like that yesterday, I went back to the barracks without answering.
Adela, who had been paying attention once, was belatedly looking at me.
“One hour?”
“come in.”
jjjjjjjjjjjjjjup
Adela creaked into the barracks.
Basil was also there.
“dream… Koo!”
“Oh, Basil! Get out for a second!”
Adela smiled awkwardly and patted Basil’s head.
A kid who can’t come in because he’s caught in the body anyway.
The fact that they came along with them is a sign that they are trying to loosen the atmosphere somehow.
Adela swallowed her saliva, staring at the innocent light.
I said calmly, pointing to the papers in Adela’s hand.
“Is that why you came? Bring it quickly.”
“Ahhe. right. here… .”
Why did you roll your eyes like this, and in the end, this was the main point?
A document with the map of the NGC area I saw yesterday stuck on the first page.
It appears to have been a plan to enter the NGC area that Natalie and I had been working on all night.
tuk.
I put the papers down on the desk and frowned.
Adela made eye contact with me and looked away with a cough.
Seeing that he murmured his mouth, he had a lot of things he wanted to say, but he seemed to be holding on because it was not likely that good words would come out of my mouth.
let’s not talk
I picked up the paperwork again and flipped the first page out loud.
At that moment, Adela, who was trembling, hurriedly spoke up.
“More specific? I even thought of several alternatives. I put safety first and tried my best to increase the success rate.”
“okay.”
“Do you like it?”
“There is a difference between jumping into a fire pit with oil on your body, and jumping into a fire pit after pouring water on it.”
“… Why are you so extreme?”
Adela grunted and pouted her lower lip.
“With this momentum, you will be treated like a dead person before you even enter.”
“don’t worry. You will be bowing down at the entrance with a ritual table set up.”
“… .”
Adela didn’t seem to understand 100% of what I was saying, but she bit her teeth, thinking it wasn’t a very good tone.
It doesn’t matter anyway
I neatly ignored Adela’s reaction and rechecked the map of the NGC area I hadn’t seen yesterday.
When I told Youn Ha-eul of the situation, I turned my eyes around and went to visit.
Looking at it calmly, it was a map of a usable level.
Even so, the fact that it was a suicide act doesn’t change much.
Yes, just splashing water on it and jumping into a pit of fire, I could see the difference.
I took a deep breath as I scanned the map slowly.
A detailed map of the NGC that even Haeul Youn and Natalie could not figure out.
where the hell did you get this
At first I was skeptical about it, but now I understand.
“… Did Han Si-hyuk give it to you?”
flinch.
I can’t lie anyway.
Ha-eul Youn specializes in not being able to lie, but Adela’s face is as bad as it gets… Looks like I got it right.
Adela asked me with a surprised look.
“how did you know?”
“Because the handwriting is the same.”
“ah.”
“And it’s rare to find a madman who records the internal structure while making use of such perverted details. Why did you mark the three flowerpots in the hallway? Anyway, you have to go to this human hospital.”
He is an insider at first glance, but he vaguely knows the inside.
Then, there was a high possibility that it was Han Si-hyuk, who had picked up this and that from the outside even if he had not been able to go inside.
I looked over my shoulder a lot when I was in the office.
However, when I am convinced that Han Si-hyuk was the one who drew this map, there is one thing that bothers me.
“Uh… .”
I wiped my chin and turned to the next page of the map.
He scoured all the written texts without missing a single line. It was to get as much information as possible somehow.
The more I mean, the weirder it gets.
“There is little information.”
“yes? You said it was incomplete.”
“Of course, unless you enter it, it must be incomplete. That’s not the problem.”
Especially the last paragraph.
As far as I know the structure of the 3rd basement floor, it seems to have been described in detail.
By the way.
“It’s an ambiguous cut off.”
“… Is that so?”
as if just talking.
The narration ended in an ambiguous paragraph as the handwriting was suddenly disturbed.
Han Si-hyuk is sensitive to such things as close to obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Even after sending the letter one day late, did you finish it like this?
“A little… Isn’t it strange?”
At my question, Adela also shook her head with a stiff face.
